[title] Measuring high current | |
- | [* black] Insert wisdom here. |
+ | [* icon_note] ***The iFixit multimeter's high current port has a 10A limit and the fuse is soldered to the multimeter's motherboard. *** If you suspect the current measurement is higher than 10A, don't use the multimeter to measure the current. Instead, use a dedicated current meter, possibly a non-contact meter. |
+ | [* icon_caution] ***Measuring amp-level current can be dangerous even at 12V levels! *** Follow these precautions: |
+ | [* icon_caution] Be very aware of what the probes are touching and make sure they don't accidentally touch anything conductive. |
+ | [* icon_caution] Be careful not to touch any live circuitry. Cover exposed circuits with insulating material and wear insulating protective equipment such as insulating gloves. |
